From Hilary:
This was painted from a bunch of over the hill roses. they reminded me of faded, painted ladies, so I put them in a garish vase, and coupled them with some old men-aged bananas!

Hi Hilary- Welcome to your first Challenge! Love the energy of your ‘oh so impressionistic’ brush strokes. Brilliant color and absolutely irresistible. Especially love the deep red vase and its reflections.

Have some of the dried roses from last year. Something so delicate and timeless and your deep red dried rose with the vase is beautiful. Congrats and welcome.

I love the delicateness of the subject combined with the impasto of the paint, so much movement in this.

I like the stories that faded flowers have to tell.
And you tell this one well in this really nice painting. I look forward to see more in the upcoming challenges.
